So, born in Manchester, been a fan for 60 years, but have lived in the US for almost 40. I pay for two streaming services so that I can watch United regularly. It costs me $600 a year. Is it really worth the time and money? Terrible owners, dreadful board, below average manager.

I hate to say it but I've now come to the conclusion that SAF may have been the greatest manager, but he is now a dead weight around the club's neck. From the Moyes decision to being instrumental in bringing back Ronaldo, one bad decision after another. not to mention that the depletion of the midfield began under his leadership and remains unsolved today. There is no one at the club who has a clue.

Though I agree Fergie shouldn't have any influence on who our manager is, the current midfield debacle isn't his problem. Fellaini, Mata, Schweinsteiger, Schneiderlin, Herrera, Blind, Pogba, Matic, Fred and Van De Beek signed for us.

Hardly Sir Alexs fault that 2 of those can't play together.

Not making the connection with Fergie and our poor midfield -been how many managers since him?

Any new manager coming in would be moving our midfield on before taking their coat off first morning in charge.

Within 72 hours of falling out of a spaceship even a green alien will of heard of Neves, Ndidi, Rice Bissouma, Tielmans, Veratti and another 25 midfielders better than ours.

The similarities between Busby and when he stood down, with the last 8 years after SAF, are frightening!
I mean the players must be aware the man upstairs still has a massive influence, on the board, manager and the coaches. In any other field of employment it stinks of nepotism, and united will never move forward when we are always looking to the past. It’s what stagnated united in the 70s and it’s happening now.
You can’t blame Ole, Phelan, Carrick, Fletcher and the outsider McKenna. This mess lies squarely at the feet of the board.

I don't know if you're trying to be sarcastic, or actually being serious. Yes we have crap owners and board, but the rubbish being served up as the United Way and United DNA falls squarely on Ole and his coaching staff.

Found myself wondering the same thing recently mate. I moved out to Japan four years or so ago and so generally have to either stay awake until the early hours of the morning or wake up at 3/ 4 am to watch us play. After last night, I think I’ll be taking a break from doing so for a while. Hopefully we get a new manager who know what he’s doing soon and I can start watching again.
